Thanks!

These look good to me. Quick question, how come for some (e.g. #6), you have ...~country-or-territory~... but for others (e.g., #10), it's only ~country~ (no -or-territory)?

Hi Dan, for this particular dataset, the country of origin is always Ethiopia, so we can be specific and say region~country~origin. On the other hand, the destination could be a country or a territory, so this identifier is less specific region~country-or-territory~... if the dataset had contained information about persons from origins that were territories as well, then we would have used region~country-or-territory~origin to denote the origin location. We attempt to always provide the most specific label for a grouping. I hope that makes sense.
